This almost look like a consentration camp to me. Maybe its because of the treatment that made it even more scary or distant.

Ha, Zen they'd need a bigger prison if they put the Banksters away! Stefan, I agree it would be a tough job to shoot in an asylum, even if it had been shut down for years. I think in prisons too, there would be a few ghosts to shiver your timbers.

lol I wondered that too Michael, I saw plenty of them looking my way after I shot the pictures.

A very forbidding place. It is the same here with prisons and military bases they don't like you taking shots. Nice capture but I wonder how many pictures they took of you taking pictures of them.

Well, for sure there are no Banksters in there.

Been there; done that; like it better on the outside. Seriously, I've wondered what kinds of photos one could get inside a prison. I'll bet there's some pretty gritty stuff for a closet street photog like me. Roel once showed some portraits from within an institution for the mentally challenged. They were powerful images. But I doubt I'd even have the guts to ask for poermission, almost afraid they'd say OK. :-| --Stefan

Wondering if "drive by" and a Prison image are a no no, lol. Be safe Shirley.

I wish I would have gotten a bit sharper shot. They frown on photographers around there so I sorta did a drive by click click, and went on my way. I tried taking photos before and a security guard told me "no photos please", that was a couple of years ago, so I just forgot. ha!

You mean you were taught right from wrong?
I like the shiny metal.
